Desires Die Hard

Chapter 156

Because of what her cousin had told her, Lola went looking for Rain two days later.

The two young women worked in the same company,

It wasn’t exactly a challenge trying to locate Rain.

Lola called Rain and asked her out for a cup of coffee.

Naturally, Rain’s curiosity was piqued. She wondered why Lola had sought her out.

She arrived at the cafe located in the same building as their office buzzing with curiosity. “What’s up? I didn’t expect you to ask me out for coffee. Aren’t you busy?”

“I caught a break” Lola said as she smiled at the other young woman and stirred her iced mocha with her straw nonchalantly. “What would you like to have?”

“A cappuccino,” Rain said after taking a glimpse at the menu.

Lola nodded and lifted her hand. That caught the attention of a waiter in the vicinity. Within moments, she placed the order for a cup of cappuccino

“What’s up?” Rain placed the menu back on the table and asked the young woman seated before her.

Lola coughed. It was an unpleasant position to be caught in. She remembered what her cousin had told her to tell Rain. She always did what her cousin told her to. The young woman steeled herself before blurting out bluntly. “Rain, you should stay away from Anya”

“What?” Rain’s eyes widened in shock. A streak of curiosity flashed across her wide eyes as she studied Lola carefully. “Why?”

“Don’t ask why. Just stop getting her into trouble or putting her in a spot.” Lola couldn’t simply tell the young woman that Anya had caught Evan’s eye.

Evan hated it when people went around gossiping about his personal life.
